Now for the diet...this is a bit ridiculous - in my opinion - but apparently November 1st is World Vegan Day and November is World Vegan Month.

Why is this ridiculous?

Because October was World Vegetarian Month.

Personally, I think they should have spread it out a bit.

Anyways, I'm going to go for it and stick to a Vegan diet for November. Vegetarian is easy, as long as you have eggs, chocolate milk, and cheese in your diet, it's fairly easy to get enough calories and to avoid boredom

A vegan diet is tougher...I tried for about 2 weeks this summer and found it hard to eat enough. Of course, that just means I have to work harder and make more preparations.

And I might also do something radical - I might start drinking vegan protein shakes. We'll see. There are plenty of options, with Sun Warrior protein being the top recommended product by Jay Ferruggia - a vegan muscle building expert.

So, should be an interesting month...and hey, if you want one trick to help you avoid eating Halloween chocolate, going vegan will solve that problem pretty quick.

I'll be sure to keep you up to date on all the meals, trials and tribulations, and successes,

In total agreement with you, Cheryl. Vega (by Sequels) is available in Canada, Craig. For vegan chocolate try some of the Cocoa Camino products. These are also available in Canada. Got to read the labels, though, some use milk; some don't.
